Hi there I'd be really interested in people's tips for dealing with vocs in flooring. I've just moved into a house which has nice laminate flooring however unfortunately there is some off-gassing. I'm ventilating well but it is persistent and affecting my breathing. I'm wondering whether there are any low-voc sealants people have used to seal in the vocs... Or have you ended up replacing flooring? TIA!

How are you measuring the vocs?They are normally only given off when cutting a laminate as they are otherwise sealed in, laminates are made up of 3 or 5 layers on top of the mdf or hefty base, the laminate is produced with high pressure and heat after which no vocs can be given off.
I invested in a dyson air purifier, it also measures and removes voc and formaldehyde
